You've got a troubled soul

I've got a troubled mind

You wanna highlight the faults

Why can't you leave them behind

Tried to fix the cracks

It's still leaking in

This will never end

If we don't begin

We burn it up from both sides

Our fuzz is fuel to the fire

Bring the tirades

Open up, let it out

Speak your mind

Or forever bite your tongue

Verse: 2
N.C.
You like the sun
 
But you just can't face it
 
I like the good things in life
 
But I don't know how to taste it
 
This vicious circle should
 
Have been a circle of trust
 
Trying to avoid, what now comes down to a must
 
I'll never finish this book
 
You always turn out the light
 
Pre-Chorus
N.C.
Reading between the lines
 
Getting tired of
 
Reading between the lines
 
Colour outside the lines
 
Bring the tirades
 
Open up, let it out
 
[Refrão]
N.C.
Speak your mind
 
Or forever bite your tongue
 
(Our love's hidden in between the lines)
 
When your heart's not there
 
It's hard to sing along
 
(Our love's hidden in between the lines)
 
Speak your mind
 
Or forever bite your tongue
 
(Our love's hidden in between the lines)
 
When your heart's not there
 
It's hard to sing along
 
(Our love's hidden in between the lines)
 
(Our love's hidden in between the lines)
 
(Our love's hidden in between the lines)
 
Outro
N.C.
Our love's hidden in between the lines
 
Our love's hidden in between the lines
